Chapter 159 Annunciation and Marriage

morning.

 Sham Shui Tin Village.

Guan Dewei was sitting at the door of his house in a happy mood, knitting something.

Today, the eldest daughter is married to a good family and is living a very happy life. The development of the family is also very good. Seven hundred cinnamon-flavored lychee seedlings have been planted, and now many new branches and leaves have grown. The orchard is full of life and feels comfortable to look at.

The children are obedient, and even the chickens and ducks seem to be growing faster than before.

 In short, everything goes well at home.

Beside him, Yongying’s mother lit two tubes of cigarettes and said, “Old man, counting the days, Yongying should be giving birth soon!”

Guan Dewei nodded and said: "It's probably just a few days!"

Yongying's mother said: "I hope she can give birth to a son in her first pregnancy, so that her parents-in-law will treat her better."

Guan Dewei said with a smile: "It doesn't matter whether the first child is male or female. It would be better if it is a son. If it is a daughter, then just have a son for the second child."

Yongying's mother said: "That's what I say, but if the first and second babies are both girls, it would be a bad thing."

Guan Dewei glanced at his wife: "You are just worried."

Yongying’s mother continued to stuff tobacco into the cigarette holder and sighed: “I don’t want to worry, because I don’t feel at ease!”

Guan Dewei said: "Maybe the first child will be a son!"

Yongying's mother lit a match and took a few puffs of cigarette before saying, "If the first child is a son, then we don't have to worry about her anymore."

Just as the couple were talking about their eldest daughter, the voice of their son-in-law Deng Changfu came from a distance: "Dad, Mom."

The couple walked out in unison and saw their son-in-law Deng Changfu riding a bicycle. A chicken, a piece of pork, wine and other gifts were hung on the handlebars of the bicycle. They couldn't help but be shocked and thought of a possibility.

 That is their daughter, born!

It’s no wonder that the Guan Dewei couple thinks so, because according to their customs, after their daughter gives birth to a child, their son-in-law has to bring eggs, chickens, pork and wine to announce the good news to them, commonly known as "reporting ginger". liquor".

Now the son-in-law has obviously brought such a gift. Combined with the "due date" of the daughter, it is naturally easy to guess the truth of the matter.

So, when Yongying’s mother saw her son-in-law, she put away her chimney, stood up and asked, “Afu, is Yongying born?”

Deng Changfu parked the car in front of his father-in-law and mother-in-law, and said with a smile on his face: "Yes, Dad, Mom, Yongying is born!"

Yongying’s mother smiled and asked, “Looking at how happy you are, Yongying must have given birth to a son?”

Guan Dewei was also a little happy in his heart. He could also see that the smile on his son-in-law's face was not fake, but from the bottom of his heart. It was obvious that their daughter was fighting for her best, and the first child she gave birth to was a son.

Deng Changfu laughed and said, "Mom, Dad, you must have never imagined that Yongying gave birth to twin sons for our Deng family."

“What did you say?”

“Did I hear it correctly? Yongying gave birth to twin sons?”

 The Guan Dewei couple heard this and exclaimed, they were completely shocked!

Their conversation was also overheard by the neighbors, who all gathered around in shock.

Deng Changfu chuckled and said, "Dad, Mom, you heard it right, Yongying gave birth to twin sons for our Deng family."

 “Great, Yongying is so impressive!”

Yongying's mother was full of excitement. Just now, she was worried about what she would do if her daughter's first and second births were both girls. She didn't expect her daughter to be so ambitious. Her first birth was a rare twin son. What a blessing. !     "Okay! Okay! Okay!"

Guan Dewei was so excited that he said three good words in a row. With these twin sons, his daughter's status in her husband's family is really solid.

The neighbors who came around were amazed and sent their blessings one after another.

 Next, after Yongying’s mother received what her son-in-law brought, she happily started killing chickens and cooking meat.

After the chicken and pork are cooked, chop the chicken into small pieces and the pork into small pieces. Then take out a dozen bowls and put a piece of chicken in each bowl. Two pieces of pork, and pour the wine brought by the son-in-law into the bowl.

 Then, they would go door to door and bring the wine to their close relatives and neighbors, and inform their grandchildren of the specific time of the moon ceremony, and invite them to drink moon wine together at that time.

In Bobai County, both urban and rural people attach great importance to making a moon.

Especially for those who give birth to a son for the first time, they will basically do everything in a big way. Even if they give birth to a daughter, many families will still organize wine.

 After the second child, some families will choose to continue to have wine, and some families will choose not to have wine.

 In short, the importance of the second child is different from that of the first child.

 There are various rules for making the moon.

 For example, if a boy is born and a girl is born, the wedding ceremony can be held in advance. If the baby is a daughter, the wedding ceremony must be held one month later.

Also, if you invite people to drink moon wine, you must first bring them a bowl of wine. There must be meat in the wine. Without these things, people will not come.

As Deng Changfu came to announce the good news, in less than half an hour, the entire Shamshui Village knew that Guan Yongying had given birth to twin sons.

Naturally, everyone is envious. In this era where people believe in strength, a family with many sons is considered powerful in the village. If a family has six or seven sons, no one in the whole village would dare to show off in front of them. .

 …

  There are really good things happening in Naye Village in May.

Deng Changfu’s family gave birth to twin sons, and Deng Changyuan married a daughter-in-law and held a wedding banquet.

Deng Shirong, as a matchmaker, gave a piece of fine khaki cloth.

 In this day and age, cloth can be said to be the hard currency in various gifts. No matter what kind of happy event it is, giving cloth is definitely a must.

Deng Yuntai and Zhang Xiuping gave them a quilt and two red envelopes with a big unity gift.

This is truly a big deal. There is no doubt about the importance of quilts in this era. There are dozens of households in Naye Village, but few can sleep warmly in winter. I don’t know how many families dream of getting a new cotton quilt. Overwintered.

 Therefore, when they saw the quilt sent by Deng Yuntai and his wife, all the guests present were envious.

As for the twenty yuan red envelope, it was also the best. Even the closest relatives of Deng Changyuan's family could not give such a big red envelope.

I won’t go into details about the wedding process. They are all similar. Deng Changyuan arranged a total of six tables for this wedding. Although it was far less than the scene when Deng Yuntai got married, it was still a big event in Naye Village. Most people just put up the table. Just three or four tables.

 The dishes are quite satisfactory, with all the chicken, duck, and fish that you should expect. They are not shabby, nor can they be said to be rich.

Originally, the bride would most likely shed tears when sending her wedding guests back, but this time the bride Ou Guohua was an exception. She was indeed a little sad when watching her relatives leave, but when she saw Zhang Xiuping, a good sister Being by his side, the sadness in my heart was quickly diluted.

Thank you all for your monthly votes, give me a thumbs up!
